NO THOUGHTS
JUST A STUDY IN DROWNING
I cannot even function. Everything about this spoke to me so profoundly and deeply and monumentally. I. Just.
I cried so many times, in a good way.
The MAIN CHARACTER - the idea that strength is not always picking up a sword, sometimes it is just surviving. IM OBSESSED.
The deeply personal love that can exist between you and a story. Omigod. The way books can be lighthouses when you feel so alone. OMIGOD.

Cover for the amazing, the stunning, the absolutely epic fanfic that is the Desert Storm (serie).
If you only read one badass long Star Wars fic, read this one(s).
(It's 1 144 599 words long. Jesus wept. And there is not one single boring moment.)

OKAY, no, you should absolutely read the Scholomance if you think you’ll enjoy:
1) Dense, fun wordlbuilding, delivered in bricks of exposition by a delightfully angry + sarcastic teenager.
2) A protagonist who is, as mentioned above, angry, sarcastic, and generally unpleasant, who keeps on being angry, sarcastic, and generally unpleasant to the very end, while also being a fundamentally and unflinchingly good person.
3) Seeing the protagonist fight not to cry BECAUSE SHE MADE FRIENDS
4) To quote @miss-aadhya, “People are fundamentally good if you give them the chance" AND "People would commit the worst of atrocities for the sake of their children"

Response to S2 E13 Inside (from Midst the podcast)
OH MY GOD (Also warning, SPOILERS!!!!)
Holy shit. We get a new look at all three (Spar, Amelda, and Weap)'s psyche and oh my god. Spar has been falling the fuck apart and is slowly unraveling and it barely took anything for Amelda to twist him around her finger like that. And we've never seen him so moveable. He was showing weakness. "Never show weakness" and he fucking failed. He just stood there like he was ordered and then when he was ordered to get help he did exactly as Amelda said because he has this weak spot now that's visible and people can do something about it. All he needed was a confident person to doubt him and pull a stread and now he's torn apart.
Oh my god Amelda. She fucking believes that this is right and that her action must be accounted for. She is doing this because she thinks it's for the greater good but she also knows that it's very wrong and she wants to pay the price because that's what she thinks is right. She so clearly has been more intelligent than she pretends to be for this whole time and she was clearly a spider stringing a web, but the web is only for the Trust. If it hurts her too she is okay with that (with calculated risks too). She will do what she needs to do (or thinks she needs to do) for the trust and she will fucking do it in a calculated manner. There's a fucking reason she's in the upper trust. She puts a lot of effort into being underestimated and it works even for the people that realize that she's trying to be underestimated because they underestimate how much she's underestimated. She lulls us into a false sense of security by being so stupid sounding and giving us glimpses of her smarter self so we think that those glimpses are the real her and that we can figure her out based off of those glimpses, but then you realize that it just goes deeper. She chooses which glimpses to show to give the correct impression that she's intelligent and hiding it so that people don't notice the extra layer. Idk if I wrote that in a way that makes sense or not but yeah.
She thinks herself a fucking god and she's not very wrong. Because she knows how to play people and the system. She was probably too late for Weep though. He's probably dead. But she thinks that she knows everything and that she can calculate everything and she's very close to right.
Also she knows what she's doing, she feels bad about it, she knows that it is considered a bad thing, but she's doing it anyways and that's fucking terrifying. She's fucking crying and still doing nothing to help Weep because she thinks this is necessary. Personally I think it's much scarier when people hurt you by trying to do something that they think is right and will make everything better than those who hurt others solely for self-gain. Because where is the line where they stop considering you as a person that they're trying to help and a tool to help others. Who do they consider humans? and even worse, if they do consider you someone that they want to help and they're doing this anyways, watching you begging for help, how dare they think that they know what's best for you. The fucking ramifications of someone trying to help you and actively hurting you while feeling bad about doing it but knowing and choose to do it anyways. Also, how many people have they fucking done this to? I fucking hate Amelda but she's damn interesting.
Weep has been so so polite this entire show. He's hidden his annoyance behind a polite exterior and even when people can see behind it he doesn't show his real self. And then he fucking snapped. Jeez. Like this man grabbing at people and clawing out of anger. Oh my god. He's fucking desperate and has an animalistic urge to attack?? idk?? Like when he's angry he's fucking unrecognizable. It's clear that We Don't Know Him. Who the fuck is this man. And then we realize that his anger is fucking him up and now he needs his medical case and then hes so careful and patient becasue if he's not, he'll speed it up and die. And then he starts loosing his composure again because he's being eaten alive inside out and then he's dying and he's begging and he's being ripped apart and oh my god.
The thing is, these Un-folks don't know anything about what's going on. They think they know how long he can live but they don't and they're playing with fire they don't even know the fucking name of his condition and they're trying to push its limits. ahhhhhh. And the medic DIDN"T LOOK AT THE INSTRUCTIONS AHEAD OF TIME. and then they're horrified by what's coming out of him because they don't understand. oh my god. They should not be playing with things they don't understand.
When Weep mentioned that they were all going to die because of the lights it was so scary. Weep was no longer stuck with them (I mean he still was, but), they were stuck with Weep. The lights are not fold safe. What about Spar's armor? That's not fold-safe. oh god.
Only like a couple of hours ago I was mentioning that I was concerned about Weep's fate because the narraters said that he would have had a happy life if he hadn't met Amelda. But now..... Well......
(also did I do the spoiler thing right??? idk how to do shit on tumblr)
